Short Description of Activity
Call Thursday evening 7/2 from Blair H. at SW Regional NF Office in Albuquerque re our objection letter on Greater Prescott Trails Mid-Term Project 2. Blair and I talked over an hour about our concerns and objections that they do not include plans for rules and safety signs on the proposed motorized plans as well as the existing motorized trails. The next morning called from Tom’s house so we could conference with her and clarify our comments and objections.
Reflection/Evaluation
Blair was very upbeat and willing to reword portions of our letter to clarify our objections. Turns out she is an Air Force Brat like I am and we were in Morocco a month or so apart – she was born there in Nov. 1954 and we were there traveling home from Tripoli, Libya on a Navy ship in summer of 1955. The world gets smaller every day.
